Deck Description

This is a five colour Deck that is based on trying to fetch its legend using either "Time of Need" or "Captain Sisay". Then it uses "Dragon's Arch" to put all these multicolured creatures into play for less mana. This deck gets accelerated by cards such as "Dark Ritual" and "Seething Song" allowing you to potentially play a "Dragon Arch" on turn 1 and the start dropping needed Legends or other multicoloured creatures from as early as turn 2.
In additon the deck has an alternative winning condition via "Coalition Victory", whose winning conditions an be fairly easily matched with the multicloured creatures (especially Sliver Queen) and as few as three of the two-coloured lands.
